(a)
Interpretation:
Na2CO3 should be named.
Concept Introduction:
Ionic compound which has a main group metal cation whose charge does not vary is named by writing the name of the cation and then the anion. the charge on the cation and number of ions from each type are not specified. In naming ionic compounds that has a metal with variable charge, the charge on the atom should be specified.
Polyatomic ions are cations or anions which have more than one atom. The name of most polyatomic anions are ended in the suffix "-ate". Exceptions to this are hydroxide, OH- and cyanide, CN-. The suffix "-ite" is used for anions that has one fewer oxygen than the anion named as "-ate". If the anion named as "-ate" is added a hydrogen atom, the word "hydrogen" is added before the name of the anion or the prefix "bi" is added.
(b)
Interpretation:
Ca(OH)2 should be named.

- You are trying to find the identity of an unknown white powder. When you perform a flame test on this powder, you obtain a red color. When the powder is reacted with silver nitrate, a white percipitate formed. What is the identity of this powder? Group of answer choices NaNO3 KCl LiCl K2SO4 LiNO3 MgSO4 MgCl2arrow_forwardWhat does Na3PO4 + Cu(NO3)2 yield? What is the total ionic equation? What is the net ionic equation?arrow_forwardSome salts make hydrates when there is moisture around. Some hydrate samples can absorb lights in visible legion. Therefore, they show some colors. Thus, hydrates can be used to detect the moisture in the environment. Let's say you are working in a laboratory with a group and you are the only student who has taken chemistry courses. Your laboratory received a sample of cobalt(II) chloride which has the formula CoCl2·xH2O. Let's say your boss asked you to find the formula of this hydrate salt sample since you are the only chemist there. From your laboratory experience, simply explain the experimental procedure you would follow to find the formula of this unknown sample. Then, use the given data for the calculation part. Mass of crucible: 32.27g Mass of crucible + unknown hydrate: 33.92 g Color of unknown hydrate: purple Mass of crucible + anhydrous form of hydrate: 33.41 g Color of anhydrous form: sky bluearrow_forward
